Hi, I thought of one more thing to consider when you are purchasing a
trunking scanner.  Check to see in your area if there are any planned
upgrades to existing trunking systems to things like digital trunking or if
there are any newly planned TRS upgrades or moves to a new TRS, and then
research whether or not they are monitorable.
